	Herpes HSV-1 & HSV-2
		While HSV can be a frustrating and painful condition for some people, in general the virus is less a medical problem than a social problem.
		While HSV can infect both genital and oral areas, both types cause milder infections when they are away from "home" territory.
		When a person with a prior HSV infection does contract the second type, the first episode tends to be less severe than when no prior antibodies are present.

	HSV color space - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This method is well-suited to visualizing the entire HSV color space in a single object; however, due to its three-dimensional nature, it is not well-suited to color selection in two-dimensional computer interfaces.
		The HSV color space could also be visualized as a cylindrical object; similar to the cone above, the hue varies along the outer circumference of a cylinder, with saturation again varying with distance from the center of a circular cross-section.
		The resulting values are in (H,S,V) form, where H varies from 0.0 to 360.0, indicating the angle in degrees around the color circle where the hue is located.

	Overview of HSV-2 (Herpes Simplex Virus-2) : ViraCor Laboratories
		HSV is similar to other human herpesviruses in structure (double-stranded DNA and a lipid-containing envelope) and in the ability to establish latency in many of the cells they infect.
		HSV infections during pregnancy (related to T-lymphocyte deficiency) are rarely associated with disseminated disease of the visceral organs, especially the liver.
		Progressive HSV perianal ulcers, colitis, esophagitis, pneumonia and neurological disorders have all been observed in these patients, and genital herpes is considered a risk factor for acquiring HIV infection among the heterosexual population.

	Frequently Asked Questions about Herpes (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		HSV is one of the most difficult viruses to control and has plagued mankind worldwide for thousands of years.
		Once HSV enters the body, it penetrates vulnerable cells in the lower layers of human skin tissue and busily attempts to replicate itself in the cell nuclei.
		Recovery from HSV encephalitis is dependent on the patient's age, the level of consciousness, duration of the disease, and the promptness of treatment.

	TAG: The OI Report - herpes simplex
		HSV replication is believed to be stimulated by a number of factors including fever (thus the term fever blister), sun exposure, concurrent viral infection, and possibly also localized trauma, hormonal changes, or stress (Erlich 1995).
		Until recently, HSV encephalitis was diagnosed by brain biopsy or serological testing of the cerebrospinal fluid for differentiation from toxoplasmosis, Cryptococcus neoformans, and lymphoma (Erlich 1995).
		HSV pneumonia may result from the contiguous dissemination of HSV from the esophagus or from the visceral spread of HSV through the bloodstream.

	HSV1 vs. HSV2
		HSV 2 usually establishes latency in the sacral ganglion, a collection of nerves found at the lower base of the spine.
		HSV 2 is the most common cause of neonatal herpes, a rare but often dangerous and potentially fatal condition that affects newborns.
		HSV 1 is the primary cause of one third of neonatal infections.

	Dr. Edward K. Wagner's Herpes Virus Research
		Upon infecting a cell, HSV is immediately faced with an important "decision", whether to proceed to productive infection or whether to establish a latent infection.
		The HSV replicative cycle is rapid compared to many other types of herpesviruses, but this general temporal classification fits the productive replication cycle of all, as well as smaller nuclear-replicating DNA viruses such as adenoviruses and papovaviruses.
		HSV capsids assemble around viral scaffolding proteins in the nucleus, and then other viral proteins interact with replicated viral DNA to allow DNA encapsidation.

	Herpes Simplex
		HSV is one of the most difficult viruses to control and has plagued mankind for thousands of years.
		HSV infection in a newborn is a very serious and even-life threatening condition if it goes undiagnosed and untreated.
		If HSV infection in a newborn is suspected, intravenous acyclovir treatment should begin immediately, since the potential dangers of the condition far outweigh any risks associated with the drug.

	Herpes simplex virus (HSV)-associated erythema multiforme (HAEM): A viral disease with an autoimmune component.
		HSV proteins could provide aberrant regulatory signals that alter the cell cycle and/or trigger apoptosis, as suggested by the finding that the UL42 protein interacts with cdc2 cyclin-dependent kinase, which is involved in the G2-M transition [39 ].
		We proposed that HSV is picked up by monocytes and macrophages [74 ], an interpretation that is supported by recent in vitro findings that monocytes evidence the highest rate of infection with HSV (80%) [29 ].
		Inasmuch as HSV DNA fragmentation is likely to be a random event, different viral genes are presumably deposited on the skin during distinct HAEM episodes, a possibility that may explain the broad morphological spectrum of the lesions and their severity, even in the same patient.

		HSV infections in neonates are most commonly due to HSV-2 and most are acquired peripartum, although in utero and postpartum transmission also occur.
		HSV viral shedding is greatest during clinically evident outbreaks; however, transmission from individuals who are seropositive to their partners who are seronegative usually occurs during asymptomatic HSV shedding periods.
		HIV infection of an HSV patient or his or her seronegative partner should also be considered a possible indication for suppression, given the proposed increase in HIV viral load.

		Because prompt treatment of HSV encephalitis appears to minimize residual neurologic damage and death, considering this diagnosis early is important in appropriate cases.

		Both types of HSV establish a lifelong latent infection in nerve cells, often with periodic recurrence of symptoms or with no symptoms at all.
		Epidemiological surveys estimate that 500,000 cases of new genital HSV infections occur each year in the United States, with at least 45 million individuals — or one in five Americans — already infected.
		Because HSV is able to evade the body’s immune system and establish latency, it is difficult to effectively clear the infection.
